I agree with azit. However, if you never did Java programming before, it all might come along as pretty overwhelming. But I'm not so sure that would be better with NDK access. In general, it might help to read a bit about Java Applets and AWT to make sense of how it works on the Kindle.
I've put a great deal of documentation into the Sudoku code published here (certainly more than I would usually do for myself) to help beginners understanding it.

What me bothered most about not having KDK access is the lack of an emulator and proper debugging. Although in fact I don't even know if the KDK provides you with the latter, but I guess its emulator is just a different Kindlet container implementation that works on the desktop instead and uses the desktop's JVM, thus providing standard debugger access. Is anyone by chance aware if the CVM on the Kindle can provide debugger access? (i.e. breakpoints, variable access, step-by-step execution ...)
